yeah, in the last thread i said i didnt wanna waste good gauges on a bad fiberglass job. add to that the fact that my car is only NA right now, and these gauges are some of the better ones advance had. i didnt wanna get too in depth before the engine swap. after that, ill probably be redoing...

finally got some batteries for new pics. here they are (tonight's work: cutting and sanding):

cre called it. ive got aluminum foil underneath and it should peel away pretty well. i trimmed and sanded some tonight, ill have pics in a little while. yeah, planning on removing the original, because three layers of fg alone should be enough to keep it rigid while maintaining about the same...

rusty spare well...i know the feeling.

kai: good plan, but it almost seems too simple to do. im thinking you're gonna run into a lot of problems (not because of incompetency, but because the supra's engine compartment was designed for the placement of the turbo)

looks beaut, i love that regulus nose.

just powdercoat/ceramic coat it, or if youre cheap, go with untouchable's idea and rattlecan it to death.

probably 3m automotive tape. dont underestimate it, its pretty good.

finally got around to the fiberglass, it looks like ive got a long road ahead of me. right now the thing pushing me is the vision of the finished product ive got in my head:icon_bigg anyway, took the console/dash trim out and foiled it, then got the first layer of glass on. took me three...

imo the gauge clusters from 89-92 looked better than the earlier ones. i think the needles were all one color, rather than a green with an orange end.

elise is alright, but exige ftw.

im pretty sure someone has done that... here's more of my change on the idea. i think i might be passing half a dollar with 2 cents here and there. i think kai's idea of a custom hood would be the best way to go, if you overcame IJ's stated problems. there was a supra for sale around...

sure, if youve got enough styrofoam to make, say...a full scale wal-mart replica. and hey, just pay those japanese guys in cigs. i saw one of em smokin on the rear tire in a pic or two.

not sure you'd be able to get a SC in the compressor location.

lance ass = runnin through the cornfield backwards. naked.

it would if he had a full roll cage, racing seat and some coilovers:naughty:

i don't see why everyone rags on Lamarossa so much. sure he made his supra look different, but it is a clean job and he did damn fine bodywork. that being said, the nsx is plain crazy, but that guy must've had a lot of time on his hands. if you dont like lama's car, then ignore it but...

know anything about the water temp?

get in there with the elbow grease, is my guess. use some heavy duty cleaner on all the metal parts to remove oxidation, then give it a good coating of sealer or protectant wax (if they make such a thing) to keep it from coming back to the sparkly surface youve just made.

ttt, come on now, someone must have hooked these up before.
